Executing the exe-file will only let me install a new printer or reconfigure the wireless settings.
I would just like to update the driver to the latest one. Why is that not possible?
I have tried to install a new printer, and to reconfigure the wireless settings, and neither seems to install the new downloaded driver. What am I doing wrong?
Kind Regards
Mikael
